Print peasant dress

I miss this dress
I bought this dress back in February or March and really liked it. It is comfortable, fit well, and it was perfect for my business casual office. Then, one night I shifted wrong while sitting in my recliner after putting my son to bed, and the back seam of the outer layer of the dress ripped. Ordinarily I would be able to fix a ripped seam pretty easily, but this material frays at the edge, so I can't just sew it back together. I was so disappointed. It's still folded up in my closet because I like it so much that I can't bear to part with it yet.

Nice dress for Spring

Frumpy
Something about this dress just read frumpy when I tried it on. It really is a matter of taste, but the busy pattern with the black, tan, and off-white just didn't look good on my 26-28 body. As a 5'4" woman, the hemline was in the wrong place. It felt a bit tight in the yoke across the back of my shoulders. Since I am curvy with a DD bust and somewhat hourglass shaped, the crossover bust and empire waist defined me in a good way while not emphasizing my muffin top belly.
Lane Bryant did a good job of styling in their display picture with the statement necklace, tights, and shoes. However, my friend asked why I was dressing like a 65 year old woman when she saw it on me. My 3 male friends panned it as well. Others may like this dress and I hate to leave a totally negative review. It just wasn't for me. I will return it to the store and see if I can find a more appropriate dress for a date.
